Fog, rain, lens flare and snow create a more immersive experience
TeliportMe Panorama 360, an interesting photography app that lets you create and share full 360 degree panoramas, is introducing 3D effects today. Among other subtle design tweaks that build on an already well-made app, you'll now have the option of adding four different weather effects to your panoramas: fog, rain, lens flare (...

A whole lot of beautiful scenery was on display this week
Another weekly photo contest has come to a close, and after seven days of entries we saw an awesome amount of turnout for this one. The prompt this week was "panorama," which opens up the topic structure again and gave everyone a chance to explore a way of taking pictures that is outside of the norm.
After going through nearly 300...

Expand your horizons with panoramic shots this week
Last week we went with a pretty loose topic, "time," and got some really interesting contest entries. Keeping in that theme of letting you expand your creative horizons, we're going with an even broader guide this week — "panorama." Android has included the ability to take panoramas natively since Android 4.0, and manufacturers and third-...

From flashy to subtle, you can now make your Google+ photos come to life
Google+ picked up a facelift and a big group of new features back at Google I/O 2013, and two of them -- Auto Awesome and Auto Enhance -- have opened up cool new photography possibilities on the network. Auto Awesome is especially intriguing, as it automatically turns groups of similar pictures you take into an animated...

360-degree panoramas from supported devices can now be included on websites, thanks to new Google widget
The ability to create 'Photosphere' 360-degree panoramas is one of the coolest features of the current crop of Nexus devices (and a few others running custom software). But so far the only place to share these images has been Google+ and a handful of other Google services, including Maps...

Google a couple weeks ago made a rather nice commercial out of the Photosphere feature, in which you make a 360-degree (more or less) panoramic photo that all gets stitched together on your phone. The holiday spot has someone taking a Photosphere in a (very) large house, with a bunch of family members in the shot.
Now, we all know Rule No. 1 of taking Photospheres is to not have anything too...

The photography app space is a crowded one, and increasingly so since Android 4.0 because of the improvements in the stock camera app. Even with Android brining its own panorama -- and now Photo Sphere -- features, a popular panorama app TeliportMe (aka Panorama app: 360) has stuck around. Today we're seeing the latest iteration of the app -- a version 3.0 update -- and it brings a complete...

There's really no shortage of camera apps out there, all offering different features and claiming to be the best. There are specific apps that do one thing well, and there are others that are more of a "camera toolbox." Love it or hate it, now that Instagram is available on Android, there's been a rush of apps repositioning themselves to differentiate and stand out.
So what does Wondershare...

One of the new features of Android 4.2 and the Nexus 4 is a camera mode called "Photo Sphere". This new camera mode, shown off in a quick promotional video from Google, is a mash-up of the traditional panorama mode offered starting in Android 4.0, and something like a "Gigapan" photo.
Basically, the Photo Sphere overlays a UI with a starting point for you to take your first photo. After it is...

This week the photo contest is going to be a fun one, with a great prize! If you haven't guessed based on the picture above, we're doing panoramas.
Panorama pictures are a series of shots that special software has stitched together into one big wide view. The software that creates them...
